'Generous' in the Bible
Am I not permitted to do what I want with what belongs to me? Or are you envious because I am generous?'
In addition, this brother has also been chosen by the churches as our traveling companion as we administer this generous gift to the glory of the Lord himself and to show our readiness to help.
We did this as a precaution so that no one should blame us in regard to this generous gift we are administering.
Therefore I thought it necessary to urge these brothers to go to you in advance and to arrange ahead of time the generous contribution you had promised, so this may be ready as a generous gift and not as something you feel forced to do.
You will be enriched in every way so that you may be generous on every occasion, which is producing through us thanksgiving to God,
Tell them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, to be generous givers, sharing with others.
All generous giving and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or the slightest hint of change.
